Border Patrol Officers Likely Stoned to Death
« on: November 20, 2017, 10:12:17 AM »
Preliminary news, as per Border Patrol, is that the officers attacked this weekend (one killed) were not shot, but likely stoned to death by illegals. Holy hell - did our border move to Iran and nobody told me? One question I have is, was it a well-planned ambush? Because call me crazy, but I would consider being attacked with rocks as deadly force, and would reply in kind if I could. Obviously we need to stand by for more details.

Probably more drug mules than illegal immigrants.

So . . . foreign drug mules have papers?

This is obviously incontrovertible proof that Trump is a misogynistic xenophobe and we do not need stronger border security.

What the hell are the ROE that the border patrol are saddled with?
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

I have a feeling the answer would tick me off.

Meanwhile the Republicans refuse to fund a border wall.

Wasn't there some big uproar some years ago about border patrol shooting at, and maybe killing don't remember, someone throwing rocks?
"so I ended up getting the above because I didn't want to make a whole production of sticking something between my knees and cranking. To me, the cranking on mine is pretty effortless, at least on the coarse setting. Maybe if someone has arthritis or something, it would be more difficult for them." - Ben

Yes, but the argument there was that the person throwing the rocks wasn't capable of throwing them effectively enough to cause harm.  The thrower was on the other side of the border and some distance away.  Think the difference between being hit by a ball thrown by the pitcher and a ball thrown by an outfielder, when in each case you're at home base.

My sentiments exactly.

Time to deploy the infantry and the armored cavalry to protect the border. I don't think repelling an invasion is a violation of posse comitatus.
